NWA World Historic Welterweight Title Match: La Sombra vs. Volador Jr. 21:47. The earlier matches in this series are so amazing because they have a sense of urgency. All of their matches are lightning paced when they are actually wrestling, but there's an intensity here that really separates going hard & fast from start to finish because you want to win & have something to prove with just screwing around & showing off. The biggest problem pro wrestling has when compared to real combat sports is the real fighters are always pushing themselves to their limits. These two may not have been fighting for their lives, but this was one of those rare instances where I don't feel bad about saying they were going to the extent of their (amazing) athletic capabilities just the same, if there was a negative here it's that once in a while they couldn't even quite keep up with the speed & complexity of what they were trying to do, with Volador somehow busting his nose up. I loved that this was only 1 fall because the traditional 2/3 fall format has always hindered their matches, with both men opting to just get the 1st two falls over with so they could get to it, which creates a massive gap in the storytelling in that both guys are literally taken out by 1 or 2 moves when they are fresh then suddenly survive 15-20 minutes of the most insane high flying, backcracking action Mexico can produce after they've already been concussed. I also loved that they did their full match here. This was the most exciting lucha program since Rey Misterio Jr. vs. Psicosis or Juventud Guerrera matches of the early to mid 90's, but they never delivered in Japan to the level the delivered in Mexico or even ECW because they were never given the time to do more than their greatest hits (remember the WAR Super J Cup needing Rey vs. Psicosis to tear the house down because no one was waiting for Gedo to somehow deliver a great final but then giving them less than 10 minutes). Japan may not have been the best audience for these two, not that they weren't going crazy for the match by the end, but it gave them the opportunity to do their best match, a marathon (3rd) fall where, unlike their later matches, they really tested their endurance by not stalling or putting in filler so they could rest. I don't think these guys have ever started at a higher level, and the match was incredibly consistent in delivering fantastic action. There were so many great spots they announcers were getting distracted trying to figure out what they were seeing, especially when they expected Sombra to do a quebrada but he instead pulled an imploding senton, which they finally settled on calling the Sombra special. Sombra finally retained with his springboard moonsault into a standing moonsault. ****1/2
